Wasn't sure if this should go here or in Viruses/Trojans but figured it would be better off here since it's a useful link to quickly check how open your system is. Shields Up (https://grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2). Click on Test My Sheilds
Also for firewalls:
Zone Alarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/)

Sygate Personal Firewall (http://www.sygate.com/free/spf_download.htm) (Just installed this one and it seems to be as good as ZA and also free)

I ran 'Shields up' and 'Probe my ports' after getting a weird E-mail. Quickly downloaded ZoneAlarm and think it does a grand job. Will get the 'Pro' version when I'm on broadband instead of dial-up.
Joined Steve's mailing list also.
